What is a Digital Therapeutic? And how do they work?
Let's dive into digital therapeutics! In this episode of Digital Health 101, we feature one of our good friends and digital health leaders: Eugene Borukhovich. Eugene is a serial intra & entrepreneur, executive, venture builder, and podcast host; the list is long and impressive!
Eugene starts by answering the question "what is a digital therapeutic?" We dive into the history of digital therapeutics ('DTx'), the different forms DTx can take, the breadth of application, and some great examples of companies who are creating real solutions with evidence, engagement and business models.
We also cover the impact DTx can have on accessing care, data collection, affordability, reimbursement and more.
Eugene also discusses the work of YourCoach.Health and how it supports health and wellness coaches to manage their business from end to end.

When the pandemic hit, emergency use went straight to the market for many behaviors and mental health-related digital therapies.
